摘要：Technologies is one of the subjects in general education that have been influenced by
political, economic, technological, social and cultural developments. The teaching of
this practical subject has been a historical component of the curriculum for many
decades. This reflected the needs of society to provide the younger generation with
the skills and knowledge necessary to ensure their smooth integration into the labour
market. During specific periods, the content of the subject did not change significantly,
despite historic disruptions in the economic, political and cultural context and these
were reflected in the guidelines of Technologies programs. This has been
demonstrated in the analysis of content of general education programmes and
textbooks of Technologies in Lithuania.
From the time the subject was introduced, pupils were taught practical skills for
employment in industry, as well as to perform household work and promote traditional
Handicraft. State institutions steered Lithuanian public education towards industryoriented,
manual training and attempted to direct Lithuanian girls and boys into
industrial production. However, the textbooks reflect the traditional view of what
Lithuania’s people needed, namely basic knowledge of how to manage domestic life,
and promote Handicraft and national traditions.
